Not a bad list that. I would be tempted to swap Taricco for Herman but we're splitting hairs with that.

Got to be Mills, Wark and Mariner surely. In any category - appearances, goals, international caps, team and individual honours, they are streets ahead of the rest.

If we lose Celina, then Reuser. In fact Reuser anyway. I can dream. And he could take free kicks. We need to score from some kind of dead ball situation...

Stewart up front. Or Mariner if I'm allowed Mariner. He was during my lifetime, but only when I was a nipper.

Mick Mills was of course an England captain, but I'm not sure he's ideally suited to the attacking demands of the modern full back, and/or McKenna's system. Taricco was obviously a cult hero and we do need a left back, but when you think of some of the quality we've had over the years, I'm not sure I can pick him. I'd rather suffer Penney at left back and have...

Johnny Wark. I'm cheating as I don't remember him during his goalscoring pomp as I was too young, but I'll have him anyway. There's only one Johnny Wark. World class player and cult club figure rolled into one. There aren't many of those knocking around in League One. Not sure how many top flight or European goals Akinfenwa has, but I'm guessing it's a touch fewer than JW (although he's not got that many fewer Scotland caps!!)

Beattie, Wark, Mariner. Forget the rest, just field those three and we would walk this league next year!

Speedy Kiwomya would be great in a KMac team, then add a Milton or Tommy Miller for goals from midfield. Reuser for an upgrade on Celina.

Given our problems up front, it's got to be Gates, Brazil and Mariner. And if you could squeeze in another one, it would be Wark as a goal-scoring midfielder.

Wark alongside Morsy, a c1991-2 Neil Thompson on the left (he could deliver a set piece), and up top I'd go for D Bent (in this league, Stewart in the Championship, I'm too young for Mariner).

I’m only going to pick players that I’ve seen and who I think will be the best fit.

Tarricco - rampaging left-back, able to defend and will try and get the opposition sent off.
Jon Walters - would be able to run the channels but still be a real threat in the box.
Magilton - offers creativity, aggression and experience to the midfield.

Mick Mills was comfortable on the ball, and played in midfield from time to time. He didn't have the pace of a Wes Burns, but I have no doubt he could have operated well in the LWB position, and been solid defensively at the same time.

I do enjoy these sort of posts.

Agree with the positions that need filling.

LB/LWB for me would be Clapham.

CM would be Holland but I'd take a Tommy Miller.

Up front let's have Dazzling Darren Bent.

It's impossible to look beyond Beattie, Wark and Mariner but them aside I'd say Butcher, Gates and Brazil

Thomos’ corners and free kicks would earn us another 10 points! Venus could deliver too.
